AAAAAAAAAH!!!
holy fucking fuck. excuse my language but holy fucking fuck. this book made me fall back in love with reading. it made my heart so happy an full, then proceeded to rip it to shreds and then put it back together piece by piece. I sobbed. for like an hour. this book took me for a spin, I didn't see anything coming. Meagan Brandy, miss ma'am, wow. wow. just- wow. Noah and Ari have my entire heart. I did hate it when Ari kept ditching Mase and them for Noah, for no other reason than that Mase, Brady and Cam already missed her so much and now that she was okay she didn't even have much time for them anymore but other that that I love them so much and I wouldn't mind a sequel of their story. I love this universe. Noah is so resilient and loving and strong and my heart just goes out to him. And Ari, ugh I love her so much. she loves hard and with her whole heart and i'm glad she had Noah to take care of her and teach her that she is worth the world and more. infinity fucking stars for the best book boyfriend ever. and then there's Chase. I wanted to punch him at times but honestly I feel for him. I hope he gets his happy ending. Cameron. she was the bestest friend Ari could have asked for. she took care of her and was there when she needed her most and I love her for that. Brady. Brady Baby. the way he loves his friends and family is so fulfilling. the way he cares for everyone made my heart melt and i want to give the biggest, warmest hug for it. I want to hug all the characters in this book. don't even get me started on Noah's mom. Fucking best mother ever. My heart goes out to her. I love the way Meagan writes her characers in this book. They jump off the page and they are just so real and i felt everything. Even Trey who I barely saw for like 3 pages, I loved and cared for. I felt all the feelings that were meant to be felt during this reading experience. I laughed. i kicked my feet in the air with pure giddiness. I cringed. I fell in love. i cried, sobbed. When I say I was freaking bawling my eyes out at 01am, I'm not kidding. i love this book. All the stars. It really fucked me sideways.
I swear.
